There are A LOT of questions going on about how to have a HDD in a Slim PS2 (pstwo). I will explain how to do it here in this tutorial.

*NOTE* This is the ONLY way to have a hdd on a slim ps2 (that i know of) and it is not really compatable. Here is a list (not sure on accuracy) of compatable games with USB EXTREME/ADCANCE
http://www.xafiers-home.com/ps2/gamelist.php

Here is a list of THINGS YOU NEED
-An External USB HDD or a Internal HDD with an External USB Enclosure(like this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817145314) *Can be found on ebay for cheaper!*
-A way of booting cd-rs on your ps2. This can be SWAP MAGIC V3.6 discs or a mod chip. Swap magic is the cheaper way to do this and you don't void your warranty. (Swap Magic MUST be v3.6 is you have an older version you can download v3.6 and boot it with the version you have)
-USB Extreme or USB Advance
USB advance is free and it can be downloaded here http://www.sksapps.com/hd/USBAdvance1.Cracked.rar.
USB Extreme does not require a modchip or swap magic but it costs money and can be bought from here http://www.modmonster.com/index.asp?...PROD&ProdID=12... (I suggest buying swap magic v3.6 as it can be used for more purposes and it is cheaper)
-The tool USB EXTREME (http://www.ps2nfo.com/USBExtreme_wininst.zip) or http://www.ps2nfo.com/usbfaq.html

Getting it to work with Swap Magic Disc and USB Advance/Extreme disc :
-Plug in your USB HDD, install drivers and format it in windows to NTFS (you can right click on the drive and hit format)
-Open up the USB EXTREME tool (on your computer) and click on the Disc Format tab and then click Format.
*For thoes who bought USB EXTREME skip the next 2 steps and just insert the disc into your pstwo.
-Burn USB ADVANCED to a cd. (burn the .bin using a program like nero or alcohol 120 while selecting BURN IMAGE! you are not actually burning the .bin as a data file...its an image)
-Stop the USB HDD and plug it into your PStwo. Now put in the USB ADVANCE cd ( either using the modchip or booting up with swap magic v3.6)
-A screen that says USB ADVANCE or USB EXTREME should pop up and then it will go to a list where games should be. If this happens.. congrats... you did it right. Now scroll down to see how to install games.

Getting it to work with just the one swap magic disc(no need to swap 2 discs) :
-Plug in your USB HDD, install drivers and format it in windows to NTFS (you can right click on the drive and hit format)
-Open up the USB EXTREME tool (on your computer) and click on the Disc Format tab and then click Format.
-Burn USB ADVANCED to a cd. (burn the .bin using a program like nero or alcohol 120 while selecting BURN IMAGE! you are not actually burning the .bin as a data file...its an image)
-Create a folder called SWAPMAGIC on the hdd. Inside the folder place the contents of the USB ADVANCE CD. ( they should be dummy, system and USBADVN.ELF )
-Rename USBADVN.ELF to SWAPMAGIC.ELF
-Stop the USB HDD and plug it into your PStwo. Now put in the USB ADVANCE cd ( either using the modchip or booting up with swap magic v3.6)
-A screen that says USB ADVANCE or USB EXTREME should pop up and then it will go to a list where games should be. If this happens.. congrats... you did it right. Now scroll down to see how to install games.

HOW TO INSTALL GAMES :
-Plug in your USB HDD
-Put a PS2 game into your disc drive (if the game is already on your computer you can mount it with alcohol 120)
-Open up the USB EXTREME tool on your computer
-Select your Disc Drive the PS2 game is in, Media type (most are DVD's) and your USB HDD
-Now you can name the game and hit start.
